2 AL-2017/AL-3017 Installation Manual

Introduction

This manual covers the information needed to install and set up the Alliance AL-2017/AL-3017 control panels including system wiringand basic programming steps. See the Alliance System Programming Manual for complete planning and programming details for theAlliance system, including a programming map and a system glossary.

Planning the systemIt is important to create a comprehensive system plan prior to installing the Alliance system. This plan should include a site map, acomponent and equipment list, a zone list, a type list, an area list, a region list and the number of users.

Memory expansion options for the AL-3017 (AL-2017 does not support memory expansion)AL-1830 memory expansion is a special option installed into the AL-3017 control panel to increase the memory capacity as detailedbelow:

InstallationEach Alliance system control panel is shipped with the following hardware:

• Two and three position terminal blocks that can be combined to provide a variety of terminal block configurations

• Clip-in and screw-in male/female standoffs

• Mounting screws

• Battery wires

CAUTION You must be free of static electricity before handling circuit boards. Wear a grounding strap or touch a baremetal surface to discharge static electricity.

To install the controller, do the following:

1. Mount the enclosureA suitable mounting location should include easy access for wiring, good lighting, suitable access to power and earth ground, and amplespace to work. The mounting surface should be flat and dry. We do not recommend mounting metal enclosures directly onto concretewalls. Check with local authorities to verify local codes regarding metal enclosure mounting.

Note: To maintain compliance with UL 365, UL 690, and UL 1610, the main control panel must be installed within a safe, vault,or Extent #1 stockroom.

All of the Alliance System enclosures contain four mounting holes located in the corners of the enclosures. Use appropriate mountinghardware to mount the enclosure to the mounting surface and the batteries to the enclosure as shown in Figure 2.

2. Install the standoffsBefore the control panel can be installed, the appropriate standoffs must be configured. Use male/female standoffs where threaded holesare aligned with the mounting holes on the control panel and use clip-in standoffs where square holes are aligned with the mounting holes(Figure 3).

3. Install the transformerMount the transformer in the enclosure using two 6/32 x 1/4” screws provided with the transformer. Install the rubber grommet into thetransformer shield and mount it to the enclosure using four 6/32 x 1/4” screws provided with the transformer.

4. Earth/chassis ground standoffsIt is important that proper grounding is provided to the enclosure. Use two male/female standoffs provided with the enclosure to secureboth the earth ground and enclosure ground wires. When securing the ground wires, use the internal tooth star washers provided with theenclosure between the standoff and the wire connector. All connections should be tight and make a good electrical connection.

5. Install the tamper switchAssemble the tamper switch assembly per the instructions provided with the tamper switch. Mount the switch assembly using the three 6/32 x 1/4” screws provided.

6. Install the control panel boardSlide the terminal blocks together as shown in Figure 1. Slide the blocks over the appropriate pins indicated on the board. Mount the boardusing four 6/32 x 1/4” screws along with internal star washers. To ensure proper ground, tighten screws securely. See Figure 3 for propermounting orientation.

7. FerritesTo be compliant with FCC Part 15B, ferrites must be installed on each of the AC wires (Figure 2). Refer to the instructions provided withthe ferrites for mounting details.

System WiringAll panel wiring should be kept well away from other wiring, avoiding parallel wire runs with other wires. Where parallel wires areunavoidable, keep wires a minimum of 2 inches apart, or in EMT. We recommend that Alliance system components that use direct wiretransformers be wired into a dedicated circuit breaker and those that use plug-in transformers be plugged into an unswitched outlet.

Earth groundWARNING Each control panel or device which mounts in a metal enclosure, must have its enclosure connected to earth

ground. Correct earth grounding procedure must be followed.

Earth grounding one enclosure containing several devicesAll devices designed for the system have chassis ground connections via metal studs to the metal enclosure. Take care that these metalstuds make good connection to the enclosure (beware of paint). The earth connections of every piece of equipment in the system can beused for connecting the shielding of shielded cables. If a device, such as a keypad, is placed in a plastic enclosure the earth lug of thisdevice does not have to be connected.

Earth grounding panels in a single buildingIf several enclosures or devices are connected to earth ground in one building, the safety earth ground of this building has to be checked bya licensed contractor.

Earth grounding panels in multiple buildingsIf the wiring extends to separated buildings, more than one common earth ground system will be used. Use isolater/repeaters to isolate thesystem bus. In this way the system is protected against variations in earth potential.

System bus connectionThe system bus (COMMS) is used to connect data gathering panels (DGP) to provide extra zones, and remote arming stations (RAS) to theAlliance system control panel. Remote devices can be up to 5,000 feet (1.5 km) from an Alliance system control panel. DGP and RASdevices must be connected via a 2-pair twisted, shielded data cable from the system bus connection (Belden 8723 is recommended). Theshield of the data cable should be connected to earth at the Alliance system control panel and should be left disconnected at any other end.We recommend that where the distance between the arming station and the nearest device is more than 328 feet (100 meters), a separatepower supply be used to power the arming station. To power the arming station, do not connect ‘+’ from the system bus. Connect ‘+’ ofthe local power supply to ‘+’ on the arming station and connect 0 volts from the power supply and 0 volts from the system bus to thearming station terminal marked ‘-’.

Note: The first and last devices on the system bus must be terminated. All other devices on the system bus must notbe terminated.

Figure 5. Shielded cable routing

Figure 6. Auxiliary power supply connections

Shielded cable routingThe shielding of all shielded cables used in the system should only be connected at ONE side to one common earthing point in a building.If a shielded bus cable is routed via more than one plastic device, the shielding from incoming and out-going cable has to be connected.

Note: Metal chassis must be earth grounded. Splice shield drain wire at all juntions.

Auxiliary power supply connectionsIn systems in which expansion module power is not supplied by the main control panel or an AC-powered DGP with auxiliary outputs, aUL Listed power supply suitable for burglar alarm applications, such as the Altronix AL300ULX, must be utilized.

Note: Tie all 0V together. Do not connect the +12V together.

Basic ProgrammingWhen you have finished installing the control panel, you can clear the panel memory, apply power and start programming.

Clear panel memoryBefore programming, the panel memory needs to be cleared. To clear the memory, do the following:

1. Remove all power to the panel (AC and battery).

2. Short the KILL jumper (Figure 9).

3. Wait 30 seconds.

4. Open the KILL jumper.

The panel memory is now cleared and restored to factory defaults.

Power up the panelOn initial power-up, the panel’s LEDs (Figure 9) should indicate:

L1 Slow flashing (micro processer is running)

Comms Tx Rapid flashing (Comms bus activity)

Comms Rx Rapid flashing (if RAS 1 is connected and functioning)

The master LCD arming station (RAS 1) should have all area LEDs lit (armed). After the RAS prompt, press MENU, then press CLEAR.If there is a system condition (such as low battery), it will be indicated on the top line of the RAS display.

If the master RAS powers up, but no LEDs lit (on) and there is not LCD display, then no power has been applied to the RAS. If the RASpowers up with all LEDs flashing and the display shows System Fault, then the system bus cabling may be faulty, or the RAS address hasbeen incorrectly set (RAS 1 address should be all DIP switches set to OFF).

4. Enter the zone number and press ENTER to access programming details and press ENTER again to move to between programmingoptions.

Zone AssignmentsAll DGPs, zones (inputs) and relays (outputs) are numbered according to a set formula. This formula determines the number/location ofDGPs, zones, and relays.

Zones and relays allocated to each DGP:Control panel 1-16 DGP 8 129-144

DGP 1 17-32 DGP 9 145-160

DGP 2 33-48 DGP 10 161-176

DGP 3 49-64 DGP 11 177-192

DGP 4 65-80 DGP 12 193-208

DGP 5 81-96 DGP 13 209-224

DGP 6 97-112 DGP 14 225-240

DGP 7 113-128 DGP 15 241-255

Either 8 or 16 zones can be connected to the control panel to expand the control panel to 24 or 32 zones. A standard DGP has 4 or 8 zones,some can be expanded in increments of 8 to contain up to 32 zones. Expanding the number of zones connected to the control panel or aDGP to more than 16 zones by using the AL-1206 is the same as combining two DGP addresses. To maintain consistent numbering, theadditional zones are taken from the next DGP address so you can not include the next DGP address for polling.

Example: An AL-2017/AL-3017 control panel has one AL-1206 (8-zone input expander) connected to J7. There is also an AL-1205 (8-zone standard DGP) connected to the System bus. In this case the zone numbering, and DGP addressing, would be:

AL-2017/AL-3017 control panel AL-1206 (standard zone expander) AL-1205 (standard DGP)

Zones 1-16 allocated Zones 17-32 allocated Zones 33-48 allocated

for this address for DGP 1 address for DGP 2 address

*unused zones must be disabled *unused zones must be disabled

To program the system for this configuration:

1. Set the address DIP switch on the AL-1205 for DGP 2 (Refer to the AL-1205 Installation Instructions for further details).

2. In installer programming go to option 4, (DGP Database). Poll DGP 2 and set DGP Type to standard. Do not poll DGP 1because the allocated zone inputs for DGP 1 have been taken by the AL-1206.

3. In installer programming go to option 1, (Zone Database). Select the proper zone type, area, and central station. Zonenumbers 25-32 must be set for zone type 0 Disabled as these zones are not used.


Communication optionsProgram communication options to set up the telephone numbers and communication formats for central station reporting. Reportingoptions can be set for both system and area reporting.

PBX number (public branched exchange)

Use this option when connection to the PSTN (public switch telephone network) is made via a PBX by dialing a number sequence. Forexample, you must dial 9 to get an ouside line. This feature should not be used if dial tone detection is required, as dial tone detection doesnot occur during this dial sequence. If dial tone detection is required, the PBX number can be entered in the central station phone number.



3. Enter 9 and press ENTER to program communications options.

4. If a 2-second pause P is required prior to dialing, press MENU, MENU, enter the dialing sequence required to gain access to theoutside telephone line, and press ENTER.

5. To clear a telephone number that has been previously entered, press MENU, MENU. A P will appear on the lower line of the keypaddisplay and the previously entered telephone number will appear on the top line of the keypad display. Press ENTER and thetelephone number will be cleared.

Note: Do not enter a “T” (wait for dial tone) since the dial tone detection does not occur during the PBX dialing string.

MSN number (Microsoft Network)For ISDN dialers, program a MSN number. This number is sent to the ISDN network on dialing, o a computer, or central station. To entera MSN number, use the same method as used for the PBX number.

Note: The MSN number can not contain a 2-second dial pause “P” or wait for dial tone “T”.

Dial tone detection

This option enables or disables dial tone detection and also allows country specific dial tone detections. For operation in the USA, werecommend that CTR21 be used. Dial tone detection will take place at the beginning of the central station dialing string when a T isdetected in the dialing string. For example, in the number 9T1234567, dial tone detection will occur before the digit 9 is dialed and againbefore the 1 is dialed.

Enter the dial tone type to be detected:

0 = Disabled (no dial tone detection takes place, the panel will dial after a 2-second delay)

1 = CTR21

2 = Netherlands

3 = UK

4 = Other

New installer codeTo delete, display, or create a user, do the following:


2. Enter 14 and press ENTER to access the users programming.

3. Enter 3 (create user) and press ENTER.4. Enter 50 (Installer) and press ENTER.

5. Press MENU to list the available alarm groups that can be assigned.

6. Press MENU again to scroll through the list.

7. Press ENTER three times (to scroll through unneeded options) and press MENU.

8. Enter the new code (up to 10 digits) and press ENTER.

9. Press ENTER three times (to scroll through unneeded options).

10. Enter 0 and press ENTER to exit. The installer PIN code is now changed.


Relays (outputs)Output controllers are used to expand the number of relays (outputs) on a DGP or control panel. Each output controller expands theoutputs by eight. A DGP can have two output controllers connected, increasing the outputs to a maximum of 16 per DGP. An AllianceSystem can have up to 32 output controllers, which allows a system maximum of 255 outputs.

If there are more than two output controllers connected to the main control panel, resulting in more than 16 outputs, the output numbers areduplicated on DGP 1. When this is done, one of two options can be used:

1. The outputs on DGP 1 are not used.

or2. Both outputs are activated together.

Example: If the main control panel has three output controllers and DGP 1 has one output controller, when output 17 isactive, the first output on the third output controller connected to the control panel and the first output on theoutput controller that is connected to DGP 1 are both activated.

Output numbers are always the same as the first 16 zone numbers on the DGP they are connected to. If a DGP address does not existbecause the previous DGP has an expanded number of zones, the output numbers of that DGP address cannot be used. The output numberscan be used if output controllers are connected to the control panel that corresponds to those output numbers.

Example: DGP 1 has 32 zones: 17-48DGP 1 outputs (max 16): 17-32(DGP 2 outputs 33-48 are not used)DGP 3 has 32 zones: 49-80DGP 3 outputs: 49-64(DGP 4 outputs 65-80 are not used)

Strobe and siren outputsThe internal strobe output is always treated as output 2. The internal siren speaker output on the control panel is always treated as output15 and the external siren speaker output on the control panel is always treated as output 16. On DGPs with siren speaker outputs, the last ofthe 16 output numbers associated with that DGP address is the siren output. For example, on DGP 3 the siren speader output is output 64.

DGP Siren output number DGP Siren output numberDGP 1 32 DGP 9 160

DGP 2 48 DGP 10 176

DGP 3 64 DGP 11 192

DGP 5 96 DGP 13 224

DGP 6 112 DGP 14 240

DGP 7 128 DGP 15 -

DGP 8 144

To enable the siren speaker output, the output number representing the siren output must be assigned to the required siren event flagnumber. The siren event flag numbers are programmed in installer programming option 2 (Area database).

Output control groupsOutput control group numbers identify a group of eight outputs controlled by the control panel, a DGP, or a RAS. When an output controlgroup is assigned to a RAS, the open collector output (OUT) terminal follows the first output of the output control group.

Programming steps1. Press MENU, enter 1278, and press ENTER to access system programming.


3. Enter 16 and press ENTER to access event to output programming.

4. Enter the output number to be programmed and press ENTER.

5. Enter the event flag number needed to trigger the output and press ENTER.

6. Enter the time zone assigned to the output and press ENTER.

7. Press MENU to toggle between Output active or Inactive during time zone and press ENTER.

8. Press MENU to toggle between Output is inverted or Noninverted and press ENTER.


Battery CapacityThe battery capacity calculations must be performed separately for each part of the system that has a separate AC supply and standbybattery. Use the following steps to determine the correct battery capacities for your system:

1. Determine the exact configuration of your system.

2. A separate battery calculation worksheet should be used for each part of the system that has a separate power supply and standbybattery. In the top row of the worksheet, list the primary component (control panel or expansion module) that is powered by thestandby battery. Expansion modules include zone expander modules, relay modules, keypads and card readers.

3. On each worksheet, add rows for all expansion modules or other devices that are powered by the primary component on thatworksheet.

4. On each worksheet, add rows for any type of notification appliance that is connected to corresponding circuits on the primarycomponent. Also include rows for auxiliary power circuits that have attached devices.

Starting with the first worksheet:5. On the row for the primary component, in the total standby current column, enter the current listed for that device. For the control

panel worksheet, this value is 200mA.

6. On the same worksheet, in any following expansion module rows, enter the operating current for the module in the standby currentcolumn. On all of the expansion module rows, multiply the value in the standby current column by the attached quantity of modulesof that type. Enter the result in the same row, in the total standby current column. If any row contains AL-1191 or AL-1193 cardreaders, enter 80mA in the active current column for that row. Multiply any value in the active current column by the number ofattached card readers, and enter the result in the same row, in the total active current column.

7. On the same worksheet, in each notification appliance row, enter the alarm current drawn by a single device in the alarm current perdevice column. On all of the notification appliance rows multiply the value in the alarm current per device column by the number ofdevices used on that circuit. Enter the result in the same row, in the total alarm current column.

8. On the same worksheet, in rows listing devices that are attached to auxiliary power terminals of the primary component, enter theoperating current for each device in the standby current per device column. On all of these rows, multiply the value in the standbycurrent per device column by the number of devices attached to that auxiliary power circuit. Enter the result in the same row, in thetotal standby current column.

9. Repeat steps 5 through 8 for every worksheet.

10. At the bottom of each worksheet, total the values in the total standby current column, the total alarm current column, and the totalactive current column.

Perform the following calculations for each worksheet:

11. Transfer the totaled value at the bottom of the total standby current column to the first blank in formula 1. Enter the required numberof hours in standby in the corresponding blank, and perform the indicated calculation. The result is the standby Amp-hours yoursystem requires. The value for required number of hours in standby varies by locale. Check with the proper authority havingjurisdiction to determine your requirements.

12. Transfer the totaled value at the bottom of the total alarm current column to the first blank in formula 2. Enter the required number ofminutes in alarm in the corresponding blank, and perform the indicated calculation. The result is the alarm Amp-hours your systemrequires. The value for required number of minutes in alarm varies by locale. Check with the proper authority having jurisdiction todetermine your requirements.

13. Transfer the totaled value at the bottom of the total active current column to the first blank in formula 3. To calculate the requirednumber of seconds active value, multiply the number of times a card is typically passed by a card reader each hour times the numberof card readers, times 5 seconds. For a medium traffic area, 12 accesses per hour is a commonly used value (i.e. 5 seconds peraccess).

14. Carry the calculated values from the preceeding three steps to the corresponding blanks in formula 4. Perform the calculation to findthe minimum battery capacity requirement for your system.

15. Due to the natural aging effects on batteries over time, temperature cycles, and varying levels of discharge, a derating factor is appliedto compensate for these variables. Please consult the battery manufacturer data sheets for the appropriate derating factor. Formula 5shows how to apply a typical derating factor of 1.15 to the minimum battery capacity requirement to determine the actual batterycapacity requirement. The batteries selected for the control panel and for any separately powered expansion modules, must have acapacity rating that is equal to or greater than the actual battery capacity requirement.

Note: This system may require two batteries. Each battery must individually meet the actual battery capacity requirement. Donot mix batteries of different types.


The following tables list the maximum continuous loads that can be supported by two 17.2 Ah batteries or one 17.2 Ah battery. If the totalstandby current exceeds those listed in the tables, you do not meet 24/72-hour standby requirements. Other battery sizes are possible, buttwo 17.2 Ah batteries are the maximum battery size supported. If your standby time is different, the battery calculation worksheet can beused to calculate the total standby battery power required. If the answer exceeds the battery size you have chosen, then appropriatebatteries must be installed or the system configuration must be adjusted to meet the battery power requirements.
